Control Roborock S5 with Smartthings and Alexa?

Start by searching the forum, there are several active threads on different methods.

There are 3 common approaches:

  1. use IFTTT. Simple, no programming required, but limited integration

  2. use Alexa as a “man in the middle.” Requires two Alexa skills, but works ok.

  3. if you have a strong technical background, you can set up your own server and use the “mi connector” integration

If you have cognitive or physical challenges that make search difficult for you (we have some community members in both categories), just start with the following thread:
